<data>
<p>To keep a record of your adventure, use the <a idref="action">Action Chart</a><!--ERRTAG-DE-17373/-->.<!--ERRTAG-DE-17447/--></p>
<p>Before you set off on your adventure, you must discover how well your Shianti masters have prepared you for your quest by determining your fighting prowess&emdash;<typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>&emdash;your state of mind&emdash;<typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ>&emdash;and your physical stamina&emdash;<typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ>. To do this take a pencil and, with eyes closed, point with the blunt end of it on to the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a><!--ERRTAG-DE-17924/-->. If you pick 0 it counts as zero.</p>
<p>The first number that you pick from the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a> in this way represents your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>. Add 10 to the number you picked and write the total in the <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> section of your <a idref="action">Action Chart</a>. (e.g., if your pencil fell on the number 4 in the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a> you would write in a <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> of 14.) When you fight, your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> will be pitted against that of your enemy. A high score in this section is therefore very desirable.<a id="gamerulz-1" idref="gamerulz-1-foot" class="footnote" /></p>
- <p>The second number that you need is one to represent your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ>. Do not use the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a>. You begin this adventure with a <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> total of 50, as your first touch of the Moonstone of the Shianti regenerates your Magical Powers immediately. If you possess unused <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points from earlier Grey Star adventures, add them to the 50 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points which possession of the Moonstone grants you. Write the total in the <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> section of your <a idref="action">Action Chart</a>. If you decide to use a spell or the power of your Wizard's Staff, then you will lose <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points. If at any time your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> falls to zero, or below, you may not use any spells or any additional <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points in combat to increase the <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> loss of an opponent. Lost <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points can be regained during the course of the adventure and it is possible for your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> score to rise above the total with which you start your adventure.</p>
- <p>The third attribute is your power of <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ>. You start with a total of 30 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points when your first touch of the Moonstone fills your body with energy and power. Add any <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points gained from playing previous Grey Star adventures to your initial score of 30 and write the total in the <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> section of your <a idref="action">Action Chart</a>. If you are wounded in combat, you will lose <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points. If at any time your <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> score falls to zero, you are dead and the adventure is over.

<p>In the event that your enemy survives such an attack or should you fall victim to a surprise attack, you will be forced to engage in close combat and must attempt to strike your enemy with the Staff. If your attack is successful, a bolt of energy will be released from the Staff that is capable of inflicting great physical harm. If you wish to increase the amount of damage that you inflict in this way, you must use more <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points and multiply the number of <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points lost by the enemy, accordingly.

<p>In the Lissan Plain the herbs and flowers that you need to mix a potion of invulnerability grow in abundance.

<p>You both drink long and deep: the large bowl is almost empty before your thirst is sated. When you have finished you walk to the far end of the hall. Two flights of stairs lead up to a large platform. At the rear of the platform a vast and elaborate frieze has been carved from the wall. In the centre, a woman stands with arms outstretched in a gesture of welcome. She is wreathed in light and, standing all around her, are rows of men and women of proud bearing. This building must be the work of the Masbaté. The woman is a representation of the Great goddess Ishir, High Priestess of the Moon, mother of all men, and the building is some form of temple or shrine.</p>
<p>Another flight of steps leads from the platform to one of the many galleries that line the temple's walls. Cautiously you both mount these steps, passing through a doorway that opens on to one of the galleries. The fading light from above does not illuminate the high archways that lead off the gallery, and, at the cost of 1 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> point, you cause a light to glow from the top of your Staff. You peer through an archway to see a large chamber, its high ceiling lost in shadow, its corners shrouded in cobwebs. In the middle of the chamber stands a long pallet of grime-encrusted marble. With a start, you realize that a human form rests upon the pallet, but your panic soon subsides, for it is a dead man, a giant, with a huge broadsword clutched to his chest with withered hands. A necklace of blue stones hangs around his neck; a circlet of silver crowns his head. The brown, shrunken flesh has been partly preserved by some process of mummification, but the garments the corpse wears have all but mouldered away.</p>
<p>Inspection of the remaining chambers on this floor confirms that this is an ancient Masbaté tomb. Each chamber is a crypt, in which the Masbaté have laid their dead to rest with their weapons of war and personal effects. The tomb of the Masbaté was probably served by guardians before Shasarak summoned the plague of demons that eventually destroyed the Masbaté tribe. Tanith arms herself with a long dagger from one of the chambers. She also takes a sling and a number of stones. You may keep any of the following items that you find in the various chambers:</p>

<p>Sitting astride the beautiful white stallion, you trot to the edge of the valley overlooking the flaming archway of the portal and draw out the Moonstone. You focus all the power of your will on to the stone and the closing of the portal. A chorus of inhuman moans ripples across the valley. You hold the Moonstone above your head as slowly it fills with power and light. The demons draw nearer and your horse paws the ground and stamps nervously.</p>
- <p>Suddenly the flaming archway ignites. Its fire swirls and writhes with great intensity, spitting gouts of liquid orange flame in all directions. You have used 1 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> point in your attempt to close the portal but now it seems imbued with a new force, a power strong enough to resist even the ancient might of the Moonstone of the Shianti. Your Simar steed rears up on its hind legs and you are almost thrown. The horde stop as if paralysed, cowering and gibbering pitifully. Your heart misses a beat as a huge pair of monstrous eyes appears within the flames of the portal.</p>

<p>You speak your mind to Sado and for once he does not argue. You mount and you and Samu ride either side of the grim-faced leader of the Freedom Guild. Sado gives the command and the entire army surges forward in pursuit of the ghostly figure of the Kazim as it heads purposefully into the night.</p>
<illustration class="float">
<p>The battle that follows is long and terrible. The Freedom Guild almost fail but with Sado's iron leadership and your brave resolve they endure, although the number of casualties is high. The Kazim reclaims its heart of stone, slaying Mother Chowloon, the Shadakine Wytch who bore it. As she dies, much of the fighting fury and ferocity that filled the Shadakine, fades. The Army of the Freedom Guild senses the Shadakine's loss of morale and press home their advantage. Soon, they have beaten the much larger force into a full-scale retreat. The entire <!--ERRTAG-RE-380951-->Shadakine Army<!--/ERRTAG-RE-380951--> heads north. Sado leads his army in pursuit, turning the retreat into a rout. It is vital that the Shadakine Army does not reach Shadaki, for there they would find new leadership under Shasarak's hand. They are still a large army and with Shasarak to lead them they could turn the tables once again.</p>
<p>The Army of the Freedom Guild pursues the fleeing Shadakine Army across much of the Shadakine Empire. The Shadakine find no place to hide, for all the cities of the Empire are in open revolt. Each Kazim has reclaimed its heart and slain the Shadakine Wytch that ruled each city. During the four days of the pursuit you are not required to exert any energy or use any of your Magical Powers and you regain 8 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points and 9 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points. Constantly harrying the ever-dwindling Shadakine force, the Army of the Freedom Guild crosses the great Kalamar River and approaches the Mountains of Lara.</p>
<p>The Mountains of Lara contain the infamous Morn Pass. It was through this pass that the Shadakine first invaded the provinces of the south. It is the last barrier between you and the fortress city of Shadaki. With growing dread you realize that the time of your final battle with Shasarak is fast approaching. With his armies scattered or destroyed, it only remains for you to challenge him yourself and ensure that the land remains free. Your trepidation is coupled with suspicion. Shasarak has many powers at his disposal. Why then has he not used them to challenge Sado's tiny army, much reduced in numbers? Perhaps there is some other reason why he does not bring his full might to bear?</p>

<p>With a wild laugh you leap from the bed and hug Tanith with joy. You have saved your people. <quote>Come,</quote> she says, leading you to a doorway. It opens on to a balcony that overlooks a large square in the centre of the city of Shadaki. There you look upon a huge crowd. They let out a thunderous cheer as they see you.</p>
<p>Later you retire to the chamber. Standing there are Sado of the Long Knife and Samu, the Masbaté King. You clasp their outstretched hands, eyes brimming with tears of happiness. You grin furiously, glad to see that they are alive. A wave of exultant relief runs through you as you receive their grateful thanks and congratulations. They tell you that the Shadakine have fled back to the Sadi Desert. All the cities of the land are free capitals as before. The long task of rebuilding has already begun and all sing your praise to the furthest comers of what was once the Shadakine Empire. They have proclaimed you their ruler, the Wizard Regent of the Free Peoples, for their faith and trust in your wisdom and courage is unshakable.</p>
<p>Hail! Wizard Grey Star, Shianti Hero and Saviour.</p>

<p>And so it was that the shame of the Shianti was absolved. With the defeat of the Wytch-king, Shasarak, the renegade Shianti Master, the Shadakine Empire he had built fell. The Shadakine people fled back to their former home in the Sadi Desert, and Grey Star&emdash;the champion of the Shianti cause&emdash;was proclaimed <quote>Wizard Regent</quote> of the free peoples of the old empire, to oversee a time of rebirth and liberty. The only Shadakine who did not return to the Sadi Desert was the Lady Tanith. She and Grey Star were soon married, as many foretold they would, to form the founding line of a magiocracy destined to rule the new confederation of free states formed from the ashes of the old empire. For the Shianti themselves a higher destiny dawned. The Goddess Ishir came to them on the Isle of Lorn and took them up to the Plane of Light. Their reward was to dwell as immortals by her side and in her service in peace and serenity.</p>
<p>The Wizard Grey Star saw them once before they departed and many fond and sad farewells were exchanged. To Grey Star was bequeathed the nature of true Shianti wisdom, the last of their ancient magical secrets which only a lifetime's study would unlock from the hundreds of dusty volumes, scrolls, and magical artifacts. The Moonstone was given into the care of the Shianti and taken with them into the Plane of Light, for still its power was too great to remain on Magnamund.</p>
- <p>Grey Star then returned to his people. Sado of the Long Knife was made general of the army, King Samu had his lands in the Lissan Plain restored to him, and Urik the Wise of the Kundi peoples was summoned to act as advisor to the Wizard Regent and Lady Tanith the Wytch-Queen. Despite his newfound responsibilities and duties, Grey Star looked forward to a time of hope and happiness. In this far corner of Magnamund, at least for now, peace reigned.</p>

- <p>(<a idref="gamerulz">The Game Rules</a>) This section of the rules implies that you must re-pick your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> even though you may have already completed a previous adventure. This is without precedent in other books and therefore appears to be a mistake. In order to preserve rule consistency among the books, you may choose to retain your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> score.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="gamerulz">The Game Rules</a>) It is implied that you must pick a new <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ> from the <a idref="random">Random Number Table</a> even if have already completed previous one or more <cite>Grey Star</cite> adventures. This conflicts with the rules for the <cite>Lone Wolf</cite> books where you carry over your score from a previous successfully completed adventure. For the sake of consistency, players may wish to carry over their existing score from the last <cite>Grey Star</cite> book they completed.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="gamerulz">The Game Rules</a>) The original intent of the author was most likely that the player should add 50 to their final <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> score from the end of their last successfully completed <cite>Grey Star</cite> adventure.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="gamerulz">The Game Rules</a>) It is possible for your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> to fall below zero. For example, if you are the victim of an attack that drains your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ>, your score may be forced below zero. If your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> falls to zero or below, you will not be able to cast spells or use the magical properties of your Wizard's Staff until your score is again above zero. You can still use your Wizard's Staff in combat as a normal weapon, but you must deduct 6 points from your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="gamerulz">The Game Rules</a>) The original intent of the author was most likely that the player should add 30 to their final <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> score from the end of their last successfully completed <cite>Grey Star</cite> adventure. In the <cite>Lone Wolf</cite> series, it is standard practice to restore one's <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points to their original total when carrying them over from one adventure to the next, but the power of the Moonstone seems to change those rules in this case.</p>
<p>(<a idref="powers">Magical Powers</a>) The wording of this section of the rules seems to indicate&emdash;if read literally&emdash;that you may choose your set of Lesser Magicks again if you have completed a previous adventure. This is without precedent in other books. In order to preserve consistency with other books, you should not choose your Lesser Magicks again. If you have currently mastered five Lesser Magicks, you may choose one additional Lesser Magick from the list. If you have already mastered six Lesser Magicks, you keep these. If you choose Alchemy as a new Lesser Magick, or you have not mastered the Lesser Magick of Alchemy but you have selected the Higher Magick of Theurgy, you also receive a Herb Pouch with contents, as detailed in the Equipment section.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="powers">Magical Powers</a>) If your <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> falls to zero or below, you will not be able to use the magical properties of your Wizard's Staff until your score is again above zero. You can still use your Wizard's Staff in combat as a normal weapon, but you must deduct 6 points from your <typ class="attribute">COMBAT SKILL</typ>. </p>
<p>(<a idref="equipmnt">Equipment</a>) If you have completed a previous adventure, you keep all equipment you had at the end of that adventure. You do not receive any new equipment, unless you have just selected Alchemy as your sixth Lesser Magick, or if you have not mastered the Lesser Magick of Alchemy but you have selected the Higher Magick of Theurgy, in which case you receive a Herb Pouch with contents as indicated in this section.</p>
<p>(<a idref="equipmnt">Equipment</a>) If you have mastered the Lesser Magick of Alchemy or the Higher Magick of Theurgy and therefore have a Herb Pouch, you may choose to keep potions, vials, or ingredients in either the Herb Pouch or your Backpack. All other Backpack Items must be kept in your Backpack.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect25">Section 25</a>) If you wish to take the Sheath, record it as a Special Item on your <a idref="action">Action Chart</a>.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect25">Section 25</a>) If you wish to take the Sheath, record it as a Special Item on your <a idref="action">Action Chart</a>.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect47">Section 47</a>) Although the term <quote>Agarashi</quote> is not used anywhere else in the <cite>Grey Star</cite> books, it is used in other books as the collective term for the monstrous servants of Agarash the Damned.</p>
+ <p>(<a idref="sect328">Section 328</a>) If you possess a Temeris Potion you can teleport without using any <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points. If you are versed in the Higher Magick of Thaumaturgy you can teleport by deducting 2 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points from your total. To use the Dimension Door of the Moonstone to teleport, deduct 4 <typ class="attribute">WILLPOWER</typ> points. (Cf. <a idref="sect12">Section 12</a>.)</p>
